Extract

This review continues the series published in previous issues of the African Studies Bulletin and which among them supplement the fourth edition of the writer's Guide to South African Reference Books (Balkema, 1965). Works published in 1965 which reached the writer too late for inclusion in the 1965 survey are also noted. Prices, where available, are given in South African rands (R1 = 1.4 U.S. dollars).

A major new atlas has been produced by the Government's Department of Planning. This Development Atlas (Government Printer, 1966, R14-90for binder and parts published to date) is loose-leaf in form and is issued in sections. Complemented by a brief but factual text, it covers such topics as physical features, administration, water resources, minerals, and mines.

The final two parts of the Africa Maps and Statistics (Africa Institute, 1962-1965) were issued in 1965. These were No. 9: Trade, Income and Aid; and No. 10: Political Development. The original plan was to publish 12 parts, but the series has been completed in 10. This publication, in loose-leaf form, will be revised in the future.
